Galectin‐4: A Novel Mediator of Human Intervertebral Disc Degeneration
Galectin‐4 correlates with intervertebral disc degeneration, independent of age, sex, or underlying pathology. Functionally, it activates NF‐κB signaling and induces pro‐inflammatory and matrix‐degrading responses, with stronger effects in nucleus pulposus cells, identifying it as a novel molecular player in disc degeneration.

My Love Story With HIFs in the Disc: A Journey to the Humboldt Research Award
ABSTRACT The intervertebral disc is a prime example of tissue adaptation to metabolic and mechanical extremes. As the largest avascular organ in the human body, the disc and the central nucleus pulposus (NP) endure constant compressive loading while sustaining a hypoxic, relatively acidic, and hyperosmotic microenvironment that would be inhospitable to

Systematic Review of Paraspinal Muscle Changes in Lumbar Spondylolisthesis: MRI and CT Insights
Paraspinal muscle degeneration, especially multifidus atrophy and fat infiltration (FI), contributes to spinal instability and spondylolisthesis progression. Reduced multifidus area and increased FI correlate with instability, while compensatory erector spinae hypertrophy is often observed, particularly in isthmic cases, highlighting the need for ...
